Retina Ready Wordpress themes

I see many WP themes that are Retina ready… but what does it mean? What are the features that make a theme Retina-ready?

The theme I’m working on uses fonts to display icons and the layout has been designed with a browser, not in Photoshop. Does it mean it is Retina-ready? Because I see many other developers using the words “Retina ready” and offering nothing more than this.

Or should have some sniffing system to display 2x images when necessary? I know there are some open source plugins in this sense, can I recommend them instead?

Hi,
There are some technics for images, like this : http://retinajs.com/
But yes, i d like to know what are the TF guidelines to validate a template as “Retina Ready”.

Btw, congrats for you camera slider, we ve been using it for last template, and for ‘real’ agency work, it s a pretty cool piece of code, really nice to work with, great job. You should consider code a Premium version with some more features (ala RS slider) to sell here.

Thank you very much… even if I have some difficulties to give assistance because of many projects during this period, but I hope to work back up to that soon.

However, I was considering http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-retina-2x/, but I don’t think the other developers mean something like that when they say Retina ready and I read that the “retinajs” way, used by Apple too I think (a similar way), slows down the loading speed of the site. Am I wrong?
